this is the "great" update that Sony gave us for the Z1...for me and for others this is a beta software and we are the lab rats...
instead of improving the phone the update to kitkat made the experience and battery life miserable..

The power consumption has increased a lot, and battery life reduced since the latest kitkat update. The phone isn't even able to charge anymore while connected to the computer through USB. How can I undo this kitkat update? I have already reset all to original factory setting, but it hasn't solved the power consumption.

Eric, 23 Mar 2014Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee
i m confused alott
about Z1. Or IPhone 5 or 5s
Please give me advise
... moreActually, iphone 5 and 5s have poor battery life than Z1 and other spec is worse except their IOS( that is actually great). In generally i perfer Z1 in these three but in modern phone of these day, I like samsung note3 as near perfect phone.

I bought a new XPERIA Z1 as I am a huge fan of japanese craftsmanship and quality consciousness. However, I am thoroughly dissapointed- the phone severely overheats with few programs running...the camera cannot produce 20mp resolution pics in auto mode....- I can still live with it all- but just after 2 days of buying the phone, its display went "black" and wont come on for a long long time. After multiple switch-off/on it will rectify the error. This has started affecting my work now...the camera also gives hazy images at times in "auto" mode. I cannot believe this is a japanese product. I am seriously considering junking off my week old phone and go back to my old phone. It didn't promise as highly as Xperia but kept up to its modest promises.... I sincerely hope that manufacturers take note and rectify their design flaws...lest the phone gets branded as one that "flattered to deceive"

Hi,
Can any one suggest which one is best
Note 3neo
Xperia z1
M confused, thought i am tired to see the save looking phones of galaxy's variants...but i am lacking one feature only in z1 is multi window....can any z1 user tell multi window option is there or not with z1

waiting4kk, 21 Mar 2014Can people that have upgraded to KitKat give your reviews, please??Where can I get mobile charger cover? Because it was lost out.Your company should provide external parts to protect from waterprof,if the any parts were lost & Broken.Its important is mainly waterprof.

jazup25, 22 Mar 2014z1 or zu? pls help...Both are crappy, dont buy any of them, both has totally horrible battery life for all tasks that is done with the screen on. ZU has a good display, thats all i like about it, and Z1 i dont know anything nice to say about it. Wait for Z2, its just around the corner now.
